Reading Partners NYC engages volunteers to devote just one hour a week, providing crucial literacy skills to young students in need, thereby transforming their academic futures.
Reading Partners believes that reading is a civil right. This conviction underlies their mission and is crucial given that only 35% of fourth graders in the US read proficiently.
With 88% of students meeting their reading growth goals last year, Reading Partners' proven one-on-one tutoring model is successfully changing the literacy narrative in New York City.
The program aims to address systemic educational inequities by offering early literacy intervention in title I elementary schools where 98% of participants are students of color.
